Answer:

<em>The speed of the water bottle at impact with the street is 49 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion </u>

A free-falling object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. Free-falling objects do not experience air resistance.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is g = 9.8 m/s^2.

The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:

vf=g.t

The water bottle dropped by Jamie takes t=5 seconds to impact the ground, thus its speed at that moment is:

vf= 9.8*5

vf =  49 m/s

The speed of the water bottle at impact with the street is 49 m/s

(BELOW YOU CAN FIND ATTACHED THE IMAGE OF THE SITUATION)

Answer:

d=\frac{2g(m1-m2)}{k}

Explanation:

For this we're going to use conservation of mechanical energy because there are nor dissipative forces as friction. So, the change on mechanical energy (E) should be zero, that means:

E_{i}=E_{f}

K_{i}+U_{i}=K_{f}+U_{f} (1)

With K_{i} the initial kinetic energy, U_{i} the initial potential energy, K_{f} the final kinetic energy and U_{f} the final potential energy. Note that initialy the masses are at rest so K_{i} = 0, when they are released the block 2 moves downward because m2>m1 and finally when the mass 2 reaches its maximum displacement the blocks will be instantly at rest so K_{f} =0. So, equation (1) becomes:

U_{i}=U_{f} (2)

At initial moment all the potential energy is gravitational because the spring is not stretched so U_{i}=U_{gi} and at final moment we have potential gravitational energy and potential elastic energy so U_{f}=U_{gf}+U_{ef}, using this on (2)

U_{gi}=U_{gf}+U_{ef} (3)

Additional if we define the cero of potential gravitational energy as sketched on the figure below (See image attached), U_{gi}=0 and we have by (3) :

0= U_{gf}+U_{ef} (4)

Now when the block 1 moves a distance d upward the block 2 moves downward a distance d too (to maintain a constant length of the rope) and the spring stretches a distance d, so (4) is:

0=-m1gd+m2gd+\frac{kd^{2}}{2}

dividing both sides by d

0=-m1g+m2g+\frac{kd}{2}

g(m1-m2)= \frac{kd}{2}

d=\frac{2g(m1-m2)}{k}, with k the constant of the spring and g the gravitational acceleration.
